Hasty History #6: The Woman Who Was Arrested For Smoking

As you all know, we are currently on a season break and working hard behind the scenes to bring you a very exciting Season Ten very soon! In the meantime, however, we thought it would be fun to give you some bonus content! We hope you enjoy!

In January of 1908, a woman named Katie Mulcahey was arrested when she was caught smoking in public. Just one day prior, a new ordinance was passed that banned women - and only women - from smoking in public places. Mulcahey, not knowing about the new ordinance, struck a match and lit her cigarette in public. She was cited for the infraction but refused to pay and was immediately arrested. When put before a judge, she was quoted as saying, “I’ve got as much right to smoke as you have. I never heard of this new law and I don’t want to hear about it. No man shall dictate to me.”

Tune into this week's BONUS episode to learn how this story ends!
